The places we visited were amazing with a lot of time at three different beaches to relax. The kids enjoyed the snorkeling as there were lots of fish! The caves we visited were also amazing! We would highly recommend this tour.”

Cruise the Gulf of Orosei from La Caletta or Orosei with swim stops at Cala Mariolu and Cala Sisine, plus optional Grotta del Fico.

“Boarded at Orosei, stayed on top deck for all parts of the trip, we preferred sitting near the bow on the floor rather than the seats. Take water/food for on the beach, although the 2 beers we purchased on board were very good value. Boarding may be quite hard if you have restricted mobility. Really enjoyed the trip and the beaches were great - take goggles and a snorkel to see the fish.”

We visited the Grottq del bue Marino which is just out of this world !! Really worth every penny. Cala luna was empty , so we could take pictures and just bath in the sun ❤️ our boat ride back was even smoother ❤️”

Bref ce ticket prévoit uniquement le transport en navette jusqu'à la grotte! c est tout Comme indiqué il faut rajouter au départ les billets pour la grotte (visite intéressante mais une nouvelle fois pas d audio guide contrairement à ce qui est indiqué) très déçus et en galère pour le reste de la journée !”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 131 reviews · from $40

Boat from Cala Gonone to Cala Luna on Sardinia’s Gulf of Orosei for swimming, beach time, and an oleander-forest walk.

“A short trip, straight to Cala Luna. You can spend as much time there as you like (there are several boats returning). I don't know if this is the case before the season, but we waited for the return boat until 4 p.m. and arrived at 11 a.m. The last one left full at 1 p.m. and then they took a siesta until 4 p.m., even though the description says there is transport approximately every hour. And that was the only downside. There are some food facilities on the beach. Overall, you can't expect more for this price.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 110 reviews · 6 to 7 hours (approx.) · from $84

Small-group rubber dinghy tour through Gulf of Orosei beaches like Cala Luna and Mariolu, with snorkeling, snacks, and optional caves.

“This is a great way to see the Gulf of Orosei. We did this with our 6 and 9 year old. The skipper knows where to go and can drop you at the beaches. My only complaint is that we booked a tour in English and the guide spoke zero English. The entire trip he would stop and point and explain things in Italian so we had no idea what he was saying. It was most difficult at the beach stops because we were always confused how long we were staying and where to go. You can definitely still go on the Italian tour and enjoy yourself but I felt…”
